Yesterday I had every intention of writing earlier in the day, but I kept coming up with other things to do. So last night I sat down on the couch and watched a little TV with my husband and fell asleep on the couch! I woke up at 10:30pm and thought about blogging. Then I decided that probably wouldn't be a good idea. I was extremely tired and there is no telling what was in my mind. SO, I went to bed and slept all night. I needed the rest. I believe my blessing received yesterday was Rest!
We had winter weather advisories all day here in McEwen. The temperature was below freezing when it started raining and it just froze to everything. Much like yesterday. Except it included all. Trees. Cars. Sidewalks. The ground. It was beautiful. It was cold. It was a great reason to stay in and do nothing and Rest!
The blessing I gave was to my cat, Whiskers and to Emily. I allowed Whiskers to stay in the house over night because it was freezing outside. He is an outside cat and loves to stay in the barn except on really cold nights. He enjoys being in the house with the kids but when he's done with all the attention he is so ready to go outside. Emily teased him with a ribbon for a little while and squealed in delight as he batted his paw back and forth at it. I guess I could say that the noise of her laughter was a blessing to me as well. So we all received.
*A reason I don't like the cat to stay in the house is that about 3:00 or so in the morning he went to do his business without making a noise. Because he is an outside cat he usually lets us know by meowing that he needs out. At 4:00 am this morning I had to go to the restroom upstairs and there was his business on the bathroom rug. At least he went to the bathroom. Now, if I could teach him to use the toilet, all would be well.
